1. Method to dynamically register a graphic on a driving scene of a vehicle utilizing a graphic projection display, comprising:
- monitoring a user input corresponding to a first viewer, the user input indicated to a portion of the graphic projection display;
monitoring a first location corresponding to the first viewer;
monitoring a second location corresponding to a second viewer;
determining a user-defined content based on the monitored user input indicated to the portion of the graphic projection display;
determining first and second graphics each representing the user-defined content, wherein the first graphic is respective to the first location corresponding to the first viewer and the second graphic is respective to the second location corresponding to the second viewer;
dynamically registering first and second viewer-defined locations of respective ones of the first and second graphics upon the graphic projection display corresponding to the driving scene of the vehicle, comprisingthe first graphic dynamically registered at the first viewer-defined location upon the graphic projection display based upon the user input and the first location corresponding to the first viewer, andthe second graphic dynamically registered at the second viewer-defined location upon the graphic projection display based upon the user input and the second location corresponding to the second viewer; and
displaying the first and second graphics upon the graphic projection display.

11. Method to dynamically register a graphic on a driving scene of a vehicle utilizing a graphic projection display, comprising:
-
monitoring a user input indicated to a portion of the graphic projection display; monitoring an occupant eye location determining a graphic representing a user-defined content based on the monitored user input indicated to the portion of the graphic projection display; dynamically registering a location of the graphic upon the graphic projection display corresponding to the driving scene of the vehicle based upon the occupant eye location; displaying the graphic upon the graphic projection display; monitoring an operator gaze location; dynamically updating the graphic representing the user-defined content based on the operator gaze location; and wherein dynamically updating the graphic representing the user-defined content comprises increasing emphasis to the graphic based on an increasing distance between the operator gaze location and the location at which the graphic is registered upon the graphic projection display; wherein dynamically updating the graphic representing the user-defined content comprises decreasing emphasis to the graphic based on a decreasing distance between the operator gaze location and the location at which the graphic is registered upon the graphic projection display.

16. Method to project a viewer-defined dynamically registered graphic upon a substantially transparent windscreen head-up display corresponding to the driving scene of the vehicle, comprising:
-
monitoring a user input corresponding to a first viewer, the user input indicated to a portion of the substantially transparent windscreen head-up display; monitoring a first location corresponding to the first viewer; monitoring a second location corresponding to a second viewer; determining first and second viewer-defined dynamically registered graphics, comprising the first viewer-defined dynamically registered graphic projected upon the substantially transparent windscreen head-up display corresponding to the driving scene based upon the user input and the first location corresponding to the first viewer, wherein the first graphic represents user-defined content based upon the user input corresponding to the first user, and the second viewer-defined dynamically registered graphic projected upon the substantially transparent windscreen head-up display corresponding to the driving scene based upon the user input corresponding to the first viewer and the second location corresponding to the second viewer, wherein the second graphic represents the user-defined content based upon the user input corresponding to the first user; and projecting the first and second graphics upon the substantially transparent windscreen head-up display; wherein the substantially transparent windscreen head up display comprises a pixelated field of view enabling graphic view from a limited direction comprising one of light emitting particles or microstructures over a predefined region of the windscreen permitting luminescent display in the limited direction while permitting vision therethrough. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18)
